Saddam cellphone video

During Your World Today on CNNI at 1804 gmt, live from Atlanta with Jim Clancy and Hala Gorani, the main story was the furore regarding the cellphone video of the execution of Saddam Hussein.

Interestingly, an editorial decision was made to show a weblink on screen to the whole video. The link was to a .3gp file, based on an Arabic language website and was part of the black and white astons used to display information on CNNI, in the position ususally used to credit video from an external source.
